Ashes Series schedule announced for 2010-11

The schedule for the 2010-11 Ashes series has been announced.

"Australian cricket fans always love an Ashes Series and demand for tickets is going to be strong, so it is important to put the dates in diaries now," said James Sutherland, Chief Executive of Cricket Australia.

"We also expect to have a lot of UK fans here again.

"I know we have only just finished an Ashes series in England but I also know that the Aussie players ? and Australian cricket in general - are already thinking about the Ashes series down under which starts in just over 12 months.

"Australia has a very good Ashes record at home and I'm hopeful that will continue next summer and we can bring the Waterford Crystal Urn back to Australia."
